jcpenney because of the attempt to turn the company around by ron johnson, the guy who created the apple store, and best buy because its founder seems hellbent on taking the company private. penney was on the ropes until recently when we learned from manny tirico, right here, the terrific ceo of pvh, phillips venue and izod, you know all those great brands, tommy, calvin klein, that penney's has started to order a ton of merchandise from pvh for its store within a store. in fact, his comments marked the bottom in the stock. as i pointed out at the time, i shopped jcpenney on tuesday and it was actually quite nice. i had lost this really good hat. if anyone knows my hat, please give it back to me. i went to buy it and they were all out of them. at $21 jcpenney can go higher even without additional news. best buy, i think the fundamentals here are on the decline. it feels terminal to me. so it seems a little ridiculous to own the stock. just as i think it's a little ridiculous that schultz, the founder, can get the financing to make the takeover that he so desperately seems to want to do.
